Logically, I agree.

However (depending on the rule set), the rule says to determine immediately upon the incident of obstruction what base to protect to - and award that base. How do we support, using the rules as printed, the award of home. (Yes, I know ... we can simply say we thought she'd score on either of the OBS's, but that avoids my point).
